About Me

My name is Pritchard Kiliswa, 31 years of age. I am an enthusiastic and compassionate individual with intent to realize objectives that I set out on. Am out-going and action-oriented to propel all that I set out on so that it eventually actualizes and synthesizes a desired dream that I have envisioned. Vision is my driving force which not only gets me going but bombasts my enthusiasm with that zeal to achieve the best and nothing but the best. I partly work and study at the same time. I am currently taking a course in Bachelors of Commerce (Logistics and Supply Chain Option) in my final year - writing my project. I am looking forward to becoming a member of the Chattered Institute of Purchasing and Supplies (CIPS) and Kenya Institute of Supplies Management (KISM) by mid this year. Am however currently taking a course in Certified Public Accountant (CPA Level I). Am the second and last born in a family of two children. I have had a keen passion on agri-business besides other business. I have started out with agriculture before venturing into the other businesses of my interest.
I started a business project because I want to become an employer. I want to provide an additional source of nutritive value to household and communities at large. I want to make available an option for households to rely on for their sources of income. Furthermore, I want to realize financial freedom and prowess.

My Business

I have embarked on personal businesses that I want to grow and focus on. One of the business projects is rabbit keeping. I have started keeping rabbits in small scale that I intend to expand into large scale. I keep the rabbits for their meat, fur, urine and waste. My plan is to export the rabbit products and also sell them locally when the right time and scale comes. I want to buy more rabbits to add to the current number and also invest more on the business project to ensure maximum returns on the investment.
Besides rabbits, am also keeping different poultry birds. I have embarked on Guinea fowl keeping, Turkey keeping, Duck keeping, Goose keeping and chicken keeping. I also keep sheep. When you lend me money, I will use it to expand all these projects to large scale for both local and over sea markets. I will also be able to acquire different breeds for my projects just to ensure that there is maximum returns on the investment. Also, it will enable me to provide the right feeds, medication and upkeep for the business projects.

I have also gone into tenders which will need some funding to do the actual jobs once I win.

Loan Proposal

I won a tender to supply excavation equipment and thus need quick money to be able to hire the same, fuel, transport and pay the operators. The works are to be completed then payments to follow in 4 weeks time.

Income Source

The tender to do the works was awarded to me and payment will be done within short after completion of the works. Am similarly employed thus able to service my loan from my salary.

    Dear Lenders,
    I would like to reduce my loan repayment amounts to the above mentioned. This is because of the reduced incomes that I am experiencing at the moment. However, once this normalizes, I will raise my repayment amounts so that I can finish the loan quickly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Lenders,
    I take this opportunity to convey my appreciation for having funded my loan fully. I did receive my loan via M-pesa that will help me expand my business as I had pointed out earlier on in my request for the same. Thank you so much and am looking forward to working with you again. I will work to repay this on time as I have always done.

    Thanks and regards

    I am pleased to be able to lend to you again, Pritchard - I will continue adding more, as loan repayments come in from other loans. I am sure, with your excellent record, that this loan will be fully funded before the deadline.

I was able to buy more stock and expand my business. I now want to explode further in this and that's why I am applying for yet another loan. Please lend me more money and be part of my success. Thanks and God bless.

    I would like to finish repaying the loan so that I can be able to apply for another one that will help me to expand my business. I was able to get some money that I would want to use to repaying this existing loan to its full conclusion. Zidisha has been a blessing to me and I would like to be a blessing to others too through it and my business.It has enabled me to do this business with ease and therefore, I would want not to waste that opportunity but use it instead to expand my territories in business so that I can flourish and be one of the biggest things that Zidisha has made.

    I did receive some money that I would want to use to complete the loan without failing. This would hence enable me to take a much more bigger loan from Zidisha Inc. that I would use to bring my business back to its feet again. I need to buy more animals and also vaccinate all of them against diseases and this would cost me a good fortune. It's the zidisha loan that would help me achieve all these comfortably and hence I need to complete my current loan first before proceeding to take the next bigger loan that I would use to accomplish my plans.

    There was a disease outbreak that affected my business immensely thus reducing my income from the same. Many of my animals died due to the same outbreak. By the time a vet could come in to help, I had lost many animals just because the outbreak caught me unawares. All the same, I am going to find ways to get back to my feet again soonest. The remaining animals have been vaccinated and are under observation. They are responding well to the medication. Animals that were in critical condition were isolated and are under observation to how they respond to the medication. the Vet come by to check on the animals very often to ensure that they are on their way to recover fully.

      Hello Brian, sorry for the late reply, I was doing well before I got an incidence that pulled me back. All the same, I want to ensure that I DO NOT FAIL in my repayments at any given time. I therefore want to finish repaying this loan and take a much more bigger loan that would enable me to do much better than the present. Thanks for checking on me.
